1 kilometre=1000 metre

      1 hour = 3600 second

       1\ km/hr=\frac{1000}{3600} m/s

       1\ km/hr=\frac{5}{18} m/s

The initial velocity of car A is 35.0 km/hr i.e

                                         35.0\ km/hr=35*\frac{5}{18} m/s

                                                                   = 9.72 m/s

The initial velocity of car B is 45 km/hr =12.5 m/s

The initial velocity of car C is 32 km/hr = 8.89 m/s

The initial velocity of car D is 110 km/hr=30.56 m/s

The acceleration of car A is given as  25\ km/hr^2

                                            =\ 25*\frac{1000}{3600*3600} m/s^2

                                            =0.00192901234 m/s^2

The time taken by car A = 15 min.

From equation of kinematics we know that-

                                 v= u+at      [Here v is the final velocity and a is the acceleration and t is the time]

Final velocity of A,  v = 9.72 m/s +[0.00192901234×15×60]m/s

                                   =11.456111106 m/s

The acceleration of B is given as    15\ km/hr^2

                                    =0.00115740740740 m/s^2

The time taken by car B =20 min

The final velocity of B is -

                             v= u+at

                               = u-at    [Here a is negative due to deceleration]

                               =12.5 m/s +[0.0011574074074×20×60]

                               =13.8888888.....

                               =13.9

The acceleration of C is given as    40\ km/hr^2          

                                                            =\ 0.003086419753 m/s^2

The time taken by car C =30 min

The final velocity of C is-

                                v = u+at

                                   =8.89 m/s+[0.003086419753×30×60] m/s

                                   =14.4455555555..m/s

                                   =14.45 m/s

The car C is decelerating.The deceleration is given as-  60\ km/hr^2

                                                                      =0.0046296296296m/s^2

The time taken by car D= 45 min.

The final velocity of the car D is-

                     v =u+at

                        =30.56 -[0.00462962962962×45×60]m/s

                        =18.06 m/s

Hence from above we see that the magnitude of final velocity car C and B is close to 15 m/s. The car C is very close as compared to car B.

Which of the physical variables listed below will change when you change the area of the capacitor plates (while keeping the bat
RSB [31]

Answer:

a. Capacitance

b. Charge on the plates  

e. Energy stored in the capacitor

Explanation:

Let A be the area of the capacitor plate

The capacitance of a capacitor is given as;

C = \frac{Q}{V} = \frac{\epsilon _0 A}{d} \\\\

where;

V is the potential difference between the plates

The charge on the plates is given as;

Q = \frac{V\epsilon _0 A}{d}

The energy stored in the capacitor is given as;

E = \frac{1}{2} CV^2\\\\E = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{\epsilon _0 A}{d} )V^2

Thus, the physical variables listed that will change include;

a. Capacitance

b. Charge on the plates  

e. Energy stored in the capacitor

Janet ran 30 meters in 4 seconds,what is her speed.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

7.5 meters per second

Explanation:

30 / 4 = 7.5

7.5 * 1 = 7.5

7.5 * 2 = 15

7.5 * 3 = 22.5

7.5 * 4 = 30

A ball is thrown straight up. If the launch velocity is 15 m/s, at what SPEED will the ball return to the thrower’s hand?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Vf = 15 m/s

Explanation:

First we consider the upward motion of ball to find the height reached by the ball. Using 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² (negative sign for upward motion)

h = height =?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, ball momentarily stops at highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 15 m/s

Therefore,

2(-9.8 m/s²)h = (0 m/s)² - (15 m/s)²

h = (-225 m²/s²)/(-19.6 m/s²)

h = 11.47 m

Now, we consider downward motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = height = 11.47 m

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

Therefore,

2(9.8 m/s²)(11.47 m) = Vf² - (0 m/s)²

Vf = √(224.812 m²/s²)

<u>Vf = 15 m/s</u>
